The Fatal Name Of. walter

Forty-four years ago the writer was

rudely constructed log cabin in the
woods, sixteen miles east of Indian
apolis A male child was borne-the
first borne of man and wife--whose in
telligence and general cultivation was
much in advance of the society in which
they lived. They were determined to
make themselves home of plenty in
the new country by their own industry,
having nothing but quarter section of
good land and their household goods.
They came from Clearmont Co., O..
Three neighbor women were there, and
after the little stranger was dressed the
mother, with black hair and beautiful
eyes, was asked to name the boy. Il
want to. call him Walter, but it is an
unlucky name. My great-grand-fathe
was named Walter, and he never came
home from the war for independence.
Then my husbands grandfather was
named Walter, and he went to the war
of 1872 and he never returned. His
oldest brother was named Walter. He
went to sea and we heard that he be-
came soldier in Europe, but he never
returned. We do not know where any
of them are buried. No grave stones
mark their resting-place. There is no
war now, and l trust never will be in
our lifetime in this country, and am
in favor OF calling him Walter, that the
old family name may be retained among
u.s." Twenty-Five years from that time
Walter babe his widowed mother fare
well to join the army for the defense Of
the Union and the home of his child
hood. He never returned, and the
mother who has just died, leaves all
her means to be devoted to bringing
the body home should its burial place
ever be found, and erecting monument
to the memory of her Walter.

An Anectionate SQUIRREL.

We frequently hear OF a pet dog, or
even horse or bird, mourning for a
lost master or mistress till it pines
away. The Atlanta Constitution tells
the same story of a pet squirrel.
The intensity of animal affection
has just been pathetically illustrated
in this city. Three years ago Mr..
Jacob Gardner, OF Bull Street, sold a
large black squirrel, which had attract
ed considerable attention while at the
store on account of its unusual size
and the beauty OF its coat.
The animal became the favorite pet
of its purchaser, and was often given
the freedom of the house, and other
liberties not often enjoyed by its kind
when in captivity were extended to
it. Occasionally the chatterer left the
premises, but never failed to return
when night approached. 1t was the
object of almost constant petting and
caressing, and nearly always slept
snuggled up in the arms ofits mistress.
A few days ago the owner left the city
for few days, leaving the squirrel at
home. The little animal soon missed
her ard ran from room to room, all
over the mouse and grounds, in search
OF her, giving Observation-Disclosures of
grief. All efforts at consolation on the
part OF others were unavailing, and
the squirrel refused either 60 be COM
torted or to partake ofits usual food,
from time to time giving vent to pit
iful little cries Indicative of grief
After nearly week had elapsed and
it became evident that the little sor-
rower's death was q matter OF only q
few days, the owner was notified and
returned home. Her arrival was greet
ed with evidences of wild Joy by the
squirrel, which jumped into her arms
with all the signs of happiness that
its weakened condition would permit.
1t made every effort to partake OF the
tempting food placed before it, but
YVES unable to swallow, and the fol
lowing day, with its eyes turned al
most pitifully into those GIFTS mistress,
it gazed out it's life while lying in her
erms.

Boring FIR Water.
From Chambers Journal

From ChamDers journal
Boring in the earth for water is an
operation often attended by great un-
certainty. Some few years ago in the
heart of London a firm of brewers
bored to depth of several hundred
yards wiohout tapping the precious flu
id, and the expensive well had to be
abandoned. Quite recently, at Burton
on Trent, similar failure occurred up
on far smaller scale. When the opef-
ators had pierced to depth of 176 feet
without finding water, they called in
the advice of some experienced artesin-
we'll engineers, who recommended the
abandonment of the works, and the
commencement of fresh bore upon O
site which they selected 200yards away.
At depth of only la feet copious
supply of water was found, yielding, in
fact, between 5000 and 8 900 gallons per
hour. 1t is remarkable that the sites
of both bores were at the same level.

Long Branch Letter.
This is great hotel. At present it
shelters not only woman with forty
brand new complete costumes, but a.
well, God made him, therefore let him
pass for man-with sixty spick-span
fresh suits, nine horses and four servants.
The lady in question is Mrs. Moses Fra.
ley of st. Louis, wife of the grain spec
ulator. OF her wardrobe the whole OF
the immediate house is aware, not alone
because it is dazzled three times day
and between meals by miraculous toll
cts, but because, though occupying an
extensive suite of rooms, two Of which
are turned into wardrobe, the corridor
into which they open has wainscotting
of trunks, varying in size from
alligator hat boxes to the huge
"togas," opening like chests of drawers.
When Mrs Fraley, who Is large
woman with blonde hair, has astonished
us for the fortieth time with a stunning
combination Of dress, hat, parasol,
gloves, stockings and shoes to match,
she will start for pastures new and be-
gin all over again, as is the mode with
women of fashion. For example, there
arrived this morning a lady who has
been doing Saratoga with thirteen
trunks, and who hlnched in a miracle
of chocolate satin sprinkled with
natural sized walnuts of golden hue,
and bronze shoes, which, by the way,
are very fashionable, and in this case
cut low enough to display golden silk
stockings. On her head was perched q
coquettish turban, trimmed with 3
dozen gold and brown rings.
As to the masculine wearer of five
dozen different costumes, Mr.. E. Berry
Wall of New York, / am told he first
became famous through his infinite
variety of his clothes and his lending
that assuming young fraud Lord Aber-
cromby 81 900 dollars. cannot vouch
for the truth of it, but it is said that
he and Mrs. Fraley regard each other
in the light of bitter rivals, though the
latter has the advantage for she can
wear diamonds in a dozen different
ways while Mr.. Wall is obliged to con-
fine himself to studs, pin and sleeve
buttons of blazing stones.
While ] write | can see through the
window the st. Louis matron setting
in her carriage for drive. She has
on wonderful gown peach colored
silk covered with immense damask roses
of crimson velvet pile; the underskirt
is hourced alternately with crimson
velvet and rose point; the cut of the
eorsage is concealed by mantle of the
brocade; tiny bonnet of lace and Grim
son pompons covers her faxen puffs,
rubies and diamonds tremble in the sun.
Mrs. Fraley steps into her satin-lined
carriage with a dexterous touch ar
ranges her skirts and settles herself
among the cushions, under the shade of
white lace, rose lined umbrella.
Presently Mr.. Fraley's valet rushes out
with vast boquet of red roses. Then
sthe lady gives the signal, the liveried
footman hops on his perch at the back,
and the liveried goodman in front
starts up the span-one pure white and
one jet black steed, with huge yellow
collars around their necks, TO the mani
